I Bleed Red, White and Blue

I’m the soldier who defends, I bleed red, white and blue. Not for our local politicians, rather I selflessly bleed for you. I bleed red for your freedom, the one I protect at any cost. Crimson colors ensuring that your civil rights are never lost. I bleed white for a noble cause, not a political agenda you see. Ivory hues this soldier spews, to protect and shelter you and me. I bleed blue for all your children, and their children just the same. Blue shades this soldier emanates, all I ask is you remember my name. I bleed all the Patriotic colors of, our flag, I’ll never be able to deny. Tints of freedom and dedication. this soldier will honor until I die.
